Description
Provides an initial iteration of an incubator module, `jdk.incubator.vector`, to express vector computations that reliably compile at runtime to optimal vector hardware instructions on supported CPU architectures and thus achieve superior performance to equivalent scalar computations. For further details, see [JEP 338](https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/338).
